Neutral Position Learning
SPECIAL TOOLS REFERENCE Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS) Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) with appropriate adapters, or equivalent diagnostic tool
Note. When installing a new transmission control module, the initialized learned values will need to be carried out.
- With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to «JACKING & LIFTING»(/lincoln/zephyr/us-2006-2006/remont/hoistjack/#jacking-lifting) .
- Install the diagnostic tool.
- Turn the ignition ON.
- The diagnostic tool should indicate NEUTRAL. If the diagnostic tool does not indicate NEUTRAL, carry out transmission control module (TCM) adjustment. For additional information, refer to «TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM)»(/lincoln/zephyr/us-2006-2006/remont/automatic-trans/#automatic-transmission-6-speed) .
- If NEUTRAL is indicated on the diagnostic tool, move the shift lever to PARK and turn the ignition OFF.
- Turn the ignition ON and move the shift lever from PARK to DRIVE. The diagnostic tool should indicate each PRNDL position.
- If the diagnostic display indicates each PRNDL position, check for any DTC codes.
- If the diagnostic display does not indicate each PRNDL position, carry out «TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) INITIAL LEARNING»(/lincoln/zephyr/us-2006-2006/remont/automatic-trans/#automatic-transmission-6-speed__transmission-control-module-tcm-initial-learning) .
